When working with custom fields, then with custom dialogs you can define which fields should be shown in which dialogs.  To access the Custom Fields and Custom Dialogs management, go to 'Management' in administration and find the listed in 'Advanced'.


TABLE OF CONTENTS


Custom Fields Management

The option Custom Fields in neoCatalog Server is used for the needs of additional data fields to specify values for the selected design. 

In the next window, you can search, select, edit, or add a new custom field with the '+' button. 

  • If you open or create a new field, at the center of the page you will see the table, with Name, Label, and Description fields, Entity Attribute (Design, Colorway, neoColor), and Type selection. The Name is used for further variable creation used in neoCatalog Layouts.
  • You can define the default value and if the field is required or not. 
  • In the Preview section, you can view the final result that will be shown in the dialogs of neoCatalog. 
  • Press Save after creation or any modification, or else to remove custom fields press 'Delete'.


After the dialogs management, the fields will be present and selectable in the supported dialogs. 


Custom Dialogs Management

The available dialogs are for editing, importing design and colorway, as search criteria in the advanced search, and for general design information. The dialogs can be customized with fields that are set by default or add unused data (others and custom fields).


In the next window, you can search, select, edit, or add a new custom dialog with the '+' button.

  • If you open or create a new dialog, at the top of the page you will see the options to choose the user type (Category) and the Exclusivity (User/Groups). 
  • The default fields are added automatically in the dialog. Those with a Read-only flag will be shown as text only.
  • The custom fields and other data are listed below under "Unused fields". 
  • Clicking on the icon-eye-off will remove the field from the dialog and will be listed below under "Unused fields".
  • Clicking on the icon-eye-on will move it back to the dialog.
  • You can define the position of the fields in the dialog by drag&drop the fields in the higher or lower position.
  • Press Save after creation or any modification, or else to remove custom fields press 'Delete'.
